Sh:rc:3's Kirch to Th Sea FIRST FROST Pennsylvania Train Running at Ttr-rlflc 8ped Strlksa Osfectivs Rail and Then Plows Through Brldga. New Madison, 0 Sept. 10. An all- steel train probably saved a score of lives when the Pennsylvania flyer that left New York at 6:30 o'clock Monday night and was due In St. Louis at o:ju ociock Tuesday evening was ditched by a raised rail near Wylle'a station, four miles west of here. Thirty-five persons were Injured. Three, It is believed, were fatally hurt and 18 are In a hospital at Richmond, Ind. Running at terrific speed to make up time the fast train struck the defective rail on the Columbus and In dianapolis division of the Pennsylvania railroad about GO feet from the approach to a small steel bridge at the edge of Wylle'a station. Train Hits Brldga. The train ran along the cross ties until the engine hit one side of the bridge, tore it from Its foundation and fell with it a half dozen feet to the creek bed. Six steel coaches ware flung to the other side of the track and turned over In a corn field, the first near the edge of the little stream. Two rear coaches, an observation diner and a ' Pullman, remained upright on the track bed. Those believed to be fatally) Injured are: J. W, Tbarp, fireman, Coaumbus, 0 Internally Injured; ono leg broken, jcaldn und bruises; George U, IWrlght, St. Louis manufacturer. Injured about hips and abdomen; George .Walker, colored porter, Columbus, O, ; News of the wreck came in to' form of a call for physician and It was hours before any Information re garding the disaster could be ob tained, the first reliable stoifles com lug from returning physicians and newspapermen who made trrps to-the Hcene. The Isolated little statloutj af forded meager wire conectUbns. Relief Trains Called. Relief trains were ruajlied frotn Richmond and Columbus anil a wretlk train from Cincinnati. Physicians from New Madison, Richmond, New Paris, O., and other surrounding towns were also hurried to the wreck Women supplied underttklrts to make temporary bandages for those hurt. and as soon as possible the Richmond relief train returned to that place with all whose Injuries required med leal attention. The portion of the track where the wreck occurred was washed out dur ing the floods In March. A particu larly sharp curve leads to the bridge and the new filling there never had willed. Heavy engines pausing over this weak track are sahl to have caused the raised rail. As Boon as the injured were cared for the wrecking train began 'reconstruction of the damaged tradk and the wrecked bridge. None of the steel coacheB was much damaged, though all wore sv-arred by rails, ties and earth, and with comparatively little repair all can be replaced In service. Injuries to passengers were caused almost 'exclusively by falling and being thrown about In the coaches, though some were cut by flying glass. LAST NIGHT fire sweeps over resort The first frost to visit this vicinity this yeur came Tuesday night. In ome places It was light, while in other places vegetation was fairly white. The first, frost this year came 16 days earlier than it did lust year. RETURNS FROM CANTON. Rev. C, V.

Sh:rc:3's Kirch to Th Sea FIRST FROST Pennsylvania Train Running at Ttr-rlflc 8ped Strlksa Osfectivs Rail and Then Plows Through Brldga. New Madison, 0 Sept. 10. An all- steel train probably saved a score of lives when the Pennsylvania flyer that left New York at 6:30 o'clock Monday night and was due In St. Louis at o:ju ociock Tuesday evening was ditched by a raised rail near Wylle'a station, four miles west of here. Thirty-five persons were Injured. Three, It is believed, were fatally hurt and 18 are In a hospital at Richmond, Ind. Running at terrific speed to make up time the fast train struck the defective rail on the Columbus and In dianapolis division of the Pennsylvania railroad about GO feet from the approach to a small steel bridge at the edge of Wylle'a station. Train Hits Brldga. The train ran along the cross ties until the engine hit one side of the bridge, tore it from Its foundation and fell with it a half dozen feet to the creek bed. Six steel coaches ware flung to the other side of the track and turned over In a corn field, the first near the edge of the little stream. Two rear coaches, an observation diner and a ' Pullman, remained upright on the track bed. Those believed to be fatally) Injured are: J. W, Tbarp, fireman, Coaumbus, 0 Internally Injured; ono leg broken, jcaldn und bruises; George U, IWrlght, St. Louis manufacturer. Injured about hips and abdomen; George .Walker, colored porter, Columbus, O, ; News of the wreck came in to' form of a call for physician and It was hours before any Information re garding the disaster could be ob tained, the first reliable stoifles com lug from returning physicians and newspapermen who made trrps to-the Hcene. The Isolated little statloutj af forded meager wire conectUbns. Relief Trains Called. Relief trains were ruajlied frotn Richmond and Columbus anil a wretlk train from Cincinnati. Physicians from New Madison, Richmond, New Paris, O., and other surrounding towns were also hurried to the wreck Women supplied underttklrts to make temporary bandages for those hurt. and as soon as possible the Richmond relief train returned to that place with all whose Injuries required med leal attention. The portion of the track where the wreck occurred was washed out dur ing the floods In March. A particu larly sharp curve leads to the bridge and the new filling there never had willed. Heavy engines pausing over this weak track are sahl to have caused the raised rail. As Boon as the injured were cared for the wrecking train began 'reconstruction of the damaged tradk and the wrecked bridge. None of the steel coacheB was much damaged, though all wore sv-arred by rails, ties and earth, and with comparatively little repair all can be replaced In service. Injuries to passengers were caused almost 'exclusively by falling and being thrown about In the coaches, though some were cut by flying glass.
